Could you build this?

No Static recompilation and native porting of a GBA binary involves low-level reverse engineering, custom binary translation, and platform-specific graphics/audio re-implementation that cannot be vibe-coded.

What it would actually take: Requires static recompilation tooling (like N64Recomp/GbaRecomp architectures) translating ARM/Thumb assembly into native C/C++, hooking custom rendering pipelines (DirectX/Vulkan) for widescreen viewport hacks, and rewriting audio subsystems. Demands deep systems programming, reverse engineering with Ghidra/IDA, and low-level game engine expertise.
